Alumni Bio – Danielle Cole
Fashion Design ’15
Danielle graduated in 2015 with a BFA in stylisme and modélisme. During her studies she pursued multiple internships at brands including Diane Von Furstenberg and Zhen & Mossi. She also worked on perfecting her skills in both fashion and French language.
Since her graduation, she has become fluent in French and has begun learning Italian. She joined the design team at Zadig & Voltaire and, over the course of the past 5+ years, has progressed from assistant to the womenswear woven designer in charge of all woven categories, including denim and leather. She has also recently launched a sexy, good mood, and sustainable lingerie brand that is 100% made in France, BOTT lingerie.
Danielle is still based in Paris where she sees herself remaining for the near future, but would also love to live in Italy at some point over the course of her career.
